AI can be fun or helpful \u2013 but sometimes it can even be dangerous. Voice cloning has already been used to scam people who receive calls from \u2013 supposedly \u2013 a loved one in trouble. But AI can be used to defend against such scams too.<\/p>\n

Samsung has added voice phishing detection to One UI 8<\/a>. This only works in Korea for now and has been trained on data from the National Police Agency and the National Institute of Scientific Investigation. If your phone supports it, you will find it in the Phone app settings \u2013 look for a Voice Phishing Suspected Call Notification toggle.<\/p>\n

The way this works is pretty simple. When talking to an unknown number, you will see a popup that says \u201cdetecting\u201d to notify you that the feature is listening in and scanning for AI voices.<\/p>\n

If an AI voice is detected, the phone will vibrate and ping to warn you, even if you are no longer looking at the screen. It seems that there are two levels: \u201csuspected\u201d, which cautions you to verify the identity of the caller, and \u201cdetected\u201d, which confirms that it\u2019s a phishing call. The call log will remember detected phishing calls.<\/p>\n

Again, this is available in South Korea only for now, but hopefully Samsung will work with relevant agencies around the world to train its detection for other languages too.<\/p>\n
